Who Did It

there it lies on the Bunny trail
a chalked outline of the victim
Easter Bunny dead plans derail
who did this is it Tiny Tim?

No Words of Late

We had a fight
We're on a break
Our words are tight
No words of late

We used to talk
We're on a break
Our words were chalked
Each day, on slate

We used to laugh
We're on a break
Our words are rough
No words of late

Mid Week Memory

CHILDHOOD GAMES
bouncing a ball against a wall
        conkers bashed as Autumn falls
the swish of a skipping rope


 hop skotch chalked in the dry
nearby swings swung  high
 five-stones on a roll


 tin-can tommy in fading light
  pooh stick streams
homespun childhood - a delight

They Tried To Welch

The deal was made and they tried to welch.
We would have none of that stupidity.
Computer glitch said salesman named Felch.
We chalked that up to incredibility.

Accepted your offer my husband pointed out.
Signed your online agreement yesterday.
Sales manager began to scream and shout.
Hours later we drove our new car away.

Panting Shadow

Dusty Staccato clouds chalked against a blackboard sky
interrupt the glow of a sunny white moon

as the silence of darkness clings to the crickets anthem -
ignoring the chorus of life that holds the stillness hostage.

And the panting shadow
beneath the lonely lamppost light

tugs always,
gently at my grip,
Ever eager,
to lead me anywhere -

but home.

Eternity On the Pavement

Eternity as his message lingers on
A message for the ages now and gone
The words scrawled out on the pavement
To be wondered or savoured as heaven sent

Does it teach us the pace of the world
And what we think or as our faith now held
And Arthur Stace provided Eternity for us
As he chalked out the word on Sydney’s pavements for him enough.

A Butterfly Mind

charismatically gifted
 in  conceptual leaps 
  expressions
opening 
          a doorway 
to destiny

moments in time 
           stumato,
from a butterfly mind

 scattered 
with unfinished masterpieces 
of imagination 

 drawings chalked& charcoaled 
with tonal modulation
the inner person
 portrayed 
face on
    in ambivalence
profiles turned to the light
 display emotional depth
through the genius
 of genuflection 
       with touch & sensibility

Town Children

Town children gather 
around in a neighborhood 
wide cobblestone street
to take part in a lively 
select game of tattered ball. 

Children stand and watch; 
the pitcher keeps a firm hold,
throwing the tattered
ball, placing it hard right down 
the middle of the chalked square.

With broom handle in 
both hands, batter swings, striking 
the small tattered ball. 
With excitement the kids jump,
clapping and cheering, "Run! Run!"

Sheet Tune

there are butterflies under the sea
and fish in the air today
willows wept over the moon
and stars giving
distance away
nothing is 
as it seems 
come here
let’s discuss 
it in bed 
where words 
lose their shapes
with their spurs
and fingers with lips
run in herds
let us interpret a rose
in the way that an ear
wraps around
and tasting each other
suppose 
we speak
from the tongues
of no talk
and stretch out 
our skin beyond
these outlines of bodies
we’ve chalked

Today.

Today I went to live
In a poem chalked of chimes
To taste some reveries in situ
I sought to find in hidden rhyme.

A heart throbbing
With anguished strain
Fire lit by some heated
Embers in the sooty brain.

Piercing with the mind
To observe and let pose
A spider gliding
Gossamer web of its dreams
Framed in a pivoted repose.

A house for habitation
Woven out of itself
Stretched in a triangle
Contemplating for
Other dimension
Beyond rational aims
Of living and dying.
